Coach: Mike Rhine, third year, 24-21 (.533).

Last year: 11-11 (7-5 Mid Penn Colonial Division).

Starters lost: Ashlynn Schaeffer.

Returning starters: Chloe Hoover (sr., 5-10, F, 13.7 ppg, P.O. first team), Hannah Crist (so., 5-7, G, P.O. second team), Jane Herman (jr., 5-6, G, P.O. honorable mention), Katie Gelsinger (jr., 5-10, F, 11.9 ppg), Meghan Hirneisen (so., 5-7, G).

Other top players: Jenay Faulkner (fr., 5-9, F), Hannah Zimmerman (jr., 5-9, F), Erin Bontrager (jr., 5-7, G).

Outlook: "On paper, we're still a young team," Rhine said, "but I wouldn't say that we're inexperienced. I have been with Katie and Chloe since I've been here so they both have a lot of experience in the system. Hannah and Meghan really came on at the end of last year. Overall, I believe we are an improved team, and all of the girls here are committed to what we're doing. We aren't quite sure how our depth will shake out just yet, but we feel we have people we can plug in that can give us valuable minutes off of the bench."

Notes: The Blue-Devils had zero seniors on their team last year and only one, Hoover, this year "¦ They were a perfect 6-0 against Shippensburg, James Buchanan and Waynesboro last season, but just 1-5 against the rest of the Colonial Division "¦ Greencastle really started coming together toward the end of the season, going 5-2 in its final seven games.

Opener: Friday, in Franklin County Tip-off at home, vs. Chambersburg, 7.
